Native American literature is a literature written with a specific purpose: to tell their side of truth. An African proverb says that all the tales will glorify the hunter till the lion learns to tell his story. This is especially true about the colonial literature. The colonial literature written by the Whites degraded and dehumanized the Natives and the Natives could not retaliate because the truth was obscured by the invaders’s language. However the learning of language has empowered the Natives to tell their truth. This paper is a study of Zitkala Sa’s autobiographical writings.
